Thread: Install Garmin Street Pilot v.2.16 Samsung Galaxy Android 4.1.2 Detailed Instructions&Pics

The only thing I can think of is you didn't change permissions for libgarminos.so. For some reason that step was left out in the first post. You can find that info in post #27. Most likely you will have to set it's permissions and then recopy libgmxt.so and set it's permissions. Hopefully that will fix you up.

What doesn't work?
- when I'm restarting my phone StreetPilot loses basemap. I've observed that StreetPilot is creating "Garmin" folder in internal memory with "GarminDevices.xml" (or something like that) file after every Android's restart. Also every restart there is new "libgmxt.so" file in "/data/data/com.Garmin.Android.apps.gmobilext/lib/" folder. When I repeat 4th and 5th step (with deleting "Garmin" folder from internal memory) everything is OK.
- extra maps. I've been creating "Map" folder in "Garmin" in internal and external memory with gmapsupp.img ("TOPO Poland 2011" map) and gmapsup2.img ("UMP" map) files - sadly StreetPilot doesn't see my extra maps.

Any ideas what's wrong?

It looks to me like the location in the libgarminos.so file is incorrect. Are you sure on your phone the external sdcard location is /Storage/sdcard1/Garmin? Check with a file manager, it might be mnt/sdcard-ext/. If that is the case, you have the wrong libgarminos.so file so streetpilot cannot find the Garmin directory on your external SDcard. You might have to request if someone has the correct libgarminos with your exact file location.

I don't know how to edit the 2.16 libgarminos file like the v1.49 one.

Thank for Your reply.

Yes, in fact, there is "mnt/sdcard-ext/" location in my Motorola RAZR MAXX too ("sdcard1" in "Storage" folder and "sdcard-ext" in "mnt" folder).

I would try "mnt/sdcard-ext/" location, but I couldn't find right "libgarminos.so" file for this location (there isn't any file for this type in the first post of this thread - maybe I didn't see it?).

Someone could help me or share "libgarminos.so" file for "mnt/sdcard-ext/" location?

The "mnt/sdcard-ext/" is the actual location of your external SDCard then.

I think you might have to ask qq123580 who made the libgarminos files for the other locations. Have you tried the V1.49 Streetpilot? That one has instructions on how to hex edit the libgarminos file yourself. For V2.16 I don't know what address the location is saved in.

Hello,
following installation instructions in post #1 I have problems with the following files: 3dgmap.img + gmapdem.img.
I do not know where I can find them. Can anybody help me ?

I also presume that I will need to replace gmaptz.img with one for Europe (where I live).

Thank you.

may be this way
